For eight decades, Afro-Cuban music icon, Omara Portuondo, has been an unstoppable force - a single mother surviving racism, misogyny, revolution and now ageism. Transcending borders and the controversy for her affiliation with the Castro regime, Omara has used her music to connect with fans around the world and celebrate the soul of her beloved Cuba. As a woman of color, Omara expresses her life experiences in a way that has inspired generations of musicians and women.
